Here's Why PSG's Gueye Has "Gana" On His Shirt
Aug 1, 2019, by Pat
Paris Saint-Germain recently unveiled Idrissa Gueye, previously of Everton, as the latest addition to its star-studded squad. But why does the midfielder wear the name "Gana" on the back of his shirt? Let's find out.
Gueye, who played in Ligue 1 before, for Lille, used to wear his more common name on the back then. He changed the name to "Gana" when already in England.
In an interview with the Liverpool Echo following his transfer to Everton in 2016, Gueye explained why he has "Gana" on his jersey. Gana is the middle name given to him by his father as a tribute to his grandfather. He said that wearing his name was out of respect.
So, there you have it. This is the story of how new PSG midfielder Idrissa Gueye wears "Gana" on the back of his shirt. Thanks to Footpack for the story.

Liverpool 26-27 Away Kit Spotted for Sale

Como 1907 26-27 Home Kit Released With Shocking €125 Price Tag
Como 1907's new 26-27 home kit has arrived, but the price tag is intense. The Italian club is charging €125 for the home jersey, which is €25 more expensive than the standard Adidas retail price of €100. While Como is asking €125 at its own official outlets, Adidas should sell the exact same kit for the standard €100 price through its own retail channels (but without the sponsors, which some surely prefer).
The steep €125 price tag stands out even further when compared to previous releases. For supporters reluctant to pay such a high amount for the new 26-27 shirt, last season's home kit is available for half price at just €55 (full price was €110).
